Tabbed by: Kevin Heiland (Kevy Absolution)
Email: kevin.heiland@gmail.com
Tuning: Standard
Notes: The other chord tab is *almost* correct, but needed some adjustments
in the chorus.
Verse:
I work inBm the dead of nighGt, when the roads are quiet,
And no one is around toBm track my moves A
Racing the yellow Bmlights to find the gate is open, G
She's waiting in the room. I juBmst step on through A
Pre-Chorus:
Bm You get iGn, you get done and then you get gone Bm
You never leave aG trace, or show your face, you get gone Bm
Should've turneGd around and lefBmt before the sun came up again
But the Asun came up again
Verse :
Enter the morniBmng light to find the day is burningG
the curtains and the wine in a lBmittle white room A
Though I'm not alonBme, her head is heavy on me G
She's sleeping like a child Bm
What could I do A
(Pre-Chorus)
BmI was a kGiller, was the best tEhey'd ever seen A
BmI'd steal youGr heaErt before you ever Aheard a thing
BmI'm an assassiGn and I had a Ejob to do A
BmLittle did I kGnow that girl was an assassiEn too A
Bridge:
DSuddenly I'm in over my hGead and I can hardly breathe Bm A
DSuddenly I'm floating over her bed Gand I feel everything Bm A
DSuddenly I know exactly whatG I did, but I can not move Bma thing A
DAnd sudGdenly I know exactly what I've done
BmAnd what it's gAonna mean to me, mean to me
I'm gone (Solo in Bm)
(Chorus)
Vamp to fade: Bm-G-E-A
